Enter the world of cassoulet through the eyes of my favorite expert in all things Gascon, Kate Hill. Here it is: her much awaited book, Cassoulet: A French Obsession.
If you're in the city, the easiest and most fun way would be to meet me somewhere for a pass off. That way you can witness my delight when I see your beans for the first time. I work near Wall Street and I live in Harlem.
Send a bean emissary
Ship them to me
So I bought one of these from D'Artagnan
It's not the funnel shaped ones I love but those are quite a bit more fragile and expensive to ship from France. This one came practically over night from NJ (or somewhere).
It'll hold 8 quarts which is enough cassoulet for 12 people.
“2 pounds and counting!”Read More
Here's some exciting news: Kate Hill is coming from France with her cassole to make cassoulet with the beans we've grown and whatever else we can rustle up. Ours will be the first stop in her 2015 Camp Cassoulet Global Roadshow.
